the only way usually for me to get unbummed besides actually facing my problems or doing self-destructive things is listening to the whole clumsy album and then theif. makes me feel like someone cares.

Howdy all.

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

im bummed because people dont remember my name. it sounds really childish/stupid but i actually broke into tears today. teachers call me by my best friend's name - like, wtf! its been 3 years since ive been in his class. *sigh*. everyone thought i was crying because he *just* had given me a detention.

ie:

teacher: DENISE! you're staying after school today
me: ... *sniffle*...

and its not just one teacher either. :mad: its everyone.

Kick their asses. :nod:

But on a serious note, the next time a teacher gets it wrong, you should write a referral to the Office. That will show them.

Try having a last name that's 11 letters long and starts with "Tz"

Then you can get back to me on this one :lol:

my last name is easy to pronounce but nobody ever gets it right
it's french but it's very rare that somebody actually pronounces it in french
so we've learned to just smile and nod when they say it the english way

Don't feel bad. People say Sarah wrong. :freak:
I don't know what their deal is, but its nothing personal.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Every single time I hgot a new teacher in high school, or someone has to read a role, people always call me Casey. I mean honestly, is Cassie THAT hard to read? I have never seen anyone spell my name Cassie and it's said KC. I used to get bummed over that. But then I just refused to respond to that name.

i know this has nothing to do about being bummed, but since we're kinda sorta talking about names, i'll just say:

spell my name with a J, and i will personally kick your ass.
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

My last name is also a very popular first name.
All my teachers call me by my last name and can't seem to remember my first name, at all. And, people make fun of the fact that my last name should be a first name.
